I'm in the bottom Game. I thought people liked the top one, do you
remember what the person who served you looked like? The top one is a bit
dark though. We're getting a guy from White Rose at our store now. He's
been trained by Joyce (manager at White Rose) who used to be the manager
at our store so he might implement some of their techniques and our
former ones. As the foot flow there is much larger they dont have the
pressure to be as pushy as we're supposed to be. If you're ever in the
city centre again (don't blame you for avoiding it) drop in and introduce
yourself. I have a purple bob hair cut and a clue-giving name badge!


The bloke who wasn't serving me seemed OK, I got accosted by some
manager-ish type woman who totally irritated me with the
sign-up-for-a-GAME-card bollocks, which there wasn't even any need for
(going from the same experience in the WR GAME - I only wanted my name &
number on an "interest" list). More lighting definitely needed for sure
though.

Long dark hair and a slightly geordie accent? She actually likes games but
having been promoted to 'Key holder' last week she's now a corportate zombie
too. It's a real shame. The bloke with dandruff and a suit who looks a bit
like Buzz is ace. But you should come to my store in the future. Well, as
long as I'm still there.

Well, if I'm ever in Brum, I'll pop in to GAME and look out for you :)
